“The biggest challenge I face is finding the time for research…”

The biggest challenge I face is finding the time for research.

All the best,

My biggest challenge is consistency. I want to be able to support my family and create additional wealth.

Your strategy and time frame now is?

I have become somewhat scattered in my current approach. I have held trades of under a day and for as long as several months. I seem to be chasing a trading method or system that generates consistent performance. To be honest, I am not a very disciplined trader. I keep thinking that I will go back to a basic system and just stick with it but then I am lured away with suggestions of success from something else and, like a dog chasing a bone, I get sidetracked and seem to be all over the place. I guess that is about as honest about my trading as I have ever been with anyone. My time frame is anywhere from a day to a couple of months.

Just to be clear from that description–you were not trend following. If you want to go trend following I can help.

“My biggest challenge has been confidence…”

Posted on by Michael Covel

Feedback in:

Hi Michael, My biggest challenge has been confidence. I’ve been a rules-based discretionary trend following trader using short-term (days to a couple of weeks) options and I struggle with having the confidence to stick with my system because of all the decision making involved during the course of a trade. I think that I’d rather find a mechanical system that I know will work over time and just go with that.

I would not describe your approach now as trend following. Rules-based + discretionary = inconsistent logic. Day trading? Not trend following. Jump in below with a path to learn.

“I came to your post because of the Peter Borish interview…”

Feedback in:

I am not a trader. I have been on the boards of 12 micro caps. I do invest and also invest in highly speculative early stage ventures. I came to your post because of the Peter Borish interview. I recently invested in an early stage company that Peter is on the board of. Great job on the interview.

Sincerely,
[name]

Thanks for the feedback. These interviews are more about trend following trading (if interested). Many on that link are friends of Peter’s.
